File this under “because why not”: Lionel Messi, on a Japanese game show, continuously juggling a soccer ball over a 60-foot obstacle.

The 27-year-old Argentina and Barcelona superstar is renowned for his first touch and dribbling prowess, but this is something altogether weirder and more impressive.

Masahiro Tanaka’s wife Mai Satoda, a sometimes Japanese game show presenter, does not appear to be involved. If you can discern anything else that’s happening in this video, leave it in the comments.

Messi is in action Sunday when Barcelona (trailing Real Madrid by one point in Spain’s La Liga) takes on Real Sociedad.
